Trekking with Rebekka into the Fjords

“Hey no one has ever shot me in action before,” she said while holding a camera in glacier-wind with bare hands.

“What do you mean by ‘in action’?” I asked, fully gloved.

“I mean with a horse,” she said in a matter-of-fact way.

For those of you not on Flickr, you may not know the “sensation” that is Rebekka, but she is one of the few that has been elevated to an elite class of super-Flickr-celebrities. She got so popular that Toyota asked her to do a series of advertisements for the Prius that are shown all over Iceland. She gets lambasted for posting too many pictures of herself, but she says, “Who could I possibly convince to come stand on a glacier at midnight in Iceland and wear a tiny dress?”
